nested resources in laravel not worked - laravel

Question

I want to have nested resources like that:
Route::group(['prefix' => 'manage', 'middleware' => ['role:boss']], function ()
{
Route::resource('/articles', 'ArticleController');
Route::group(['prefix' => '/articles', 'as' => 'articles.'], function () {
Route::resource('/types', 'ArticleTypeController');
});
});
But nested route for "article/type" doesn't work, I check my ArticleTypeController outside the "article" route and work.
I really confused, Everybody can help me?
and here is my controller:
class ArticleTypeController extends Controller
{
public function index()
{
$types = ArticleType::all();
return view('manage.articles.types.index')->withtypes($types);
}
}

Answer 1

Route::group(['prefix' => 'manage', 'middleware' => ['role:boss']], function ()
{
Route::get('articles/types', 'ArticleTypeController#articleTypeMethod');
Route::resource('articles', 'ArticleController');
Route::resource('articles.types', 'ArticleTypeController');
});
for nested resources use articles.types. plural naming is good.
now that manage/articles and manage/articles/1/types will work.
If you want to put a custom route, put it above the resource route if the controller has been used as a resource. see the articles/types [GET] route which maps to ArticleTypeController's articleTypeMethod. now this way http://localhost.com/manage/articles/types should work
here is the 5.1 documentation and it has been removed from documentation of 5.5. but have a look at what Taylor said about it here
it's not recommended on REST to use index function for articles/types, a nested resources index method is used like articles/{id}/types.
for articles/types you need to create a new method.
but if you still want to do it like that. just make it like this
Route::group(['prefix' => 'manage', 'middleware' => ['role:boss']], function ()
{
Route::get('articles/types', 'ArticleTypeController#index');
Route::resource('articles', 'ArticleController');
Route::resource('articles.types', 'ArticleTypeController', ['except' => ['index']]);
});
